“Saltwater Lane represents a Seattle area client’s desire for a vacation home where friends and family can come together to enjoy the beauty of the San Juan Islands. Interesting textures and a watery palette inspired by the inlet behind the home lend way to a respite from city life.”

A stylish getaway to kick start your week by Seattle-based interior designer Kylee Shintaffer.

I love it when a staid and proper terrace is all party house out the back. Fabulous extension to this Paddington, Sydney home by Juicy Design.

Steel, timber and glass  float on the edge, hovering above the trees. Outside it appears to be a simple pavilion but step to the side on you see its two storeys sit on a monolithic concrete base. The simplicity of line and materials continues inside with a distinct Scandinavian feel. Not surprising as it is a private summer house high above Torsbyfjärden outside Stockholm. Aspvik by Andreas Martin-Löf Arkitekter.

This farmhouse in the country is so beautiful I just want to melt into each photo. Designed by the great Leanne Ford, it’s simple in all white and caramel colours – very much neutral and soothing.

If you’ve been following our blog a while you’ll know Jo and I love church conversions. This 12,000 sq ft church in Mountain Town, Colorado was converted into a family vacation home and is another project by designer Kimille Taylor. A more subdued colour palette here, and while also eclectic, it’s a bit less drastic. Even toned down a few notches from her own space, this home is an absolute stunner!
